Parkes council hears cost overrun on lake works

Parkes Municipal Council heard that the Lake Endeavor tam works may cost well above earlier estimates. K A EB Fox, town clerk, said extra work and scoured channels had raised the total to about 80 000, with no impact on council funds as arrangements with the Minister stand. A boy was hit by a lorry on Currajong Street but survived, and several local residents and visitors were noted. The Parkes Aero Club proposed adding ten feet to the hanger, a plan already referred to the Minister for funding.
